I had to make a difficult decision not to include any of my personal judgement into this list, and just include as many people as I could find. We all have our negative traits don’t we. As much as someone may have a bad attitude or don’t return your mouthpiece, others have also got their holy grail pieces from the same guy. So my aim was to lay it out there and everyone can make their own call.

It still seems irresponsible to me to include people with a track record of taking people's money and not delivering the work paid for or refunding the payment and returning the mouthpiece. As an extreme example, if Dave Guardala had done refacing before producing his own mouthpieces and later turning to fraud, should he be included on the list? Making note of a track record of poor business practices (or outright scamming) seems very different from judging how good someone's work is.
